Building Trust in Transition: The New Era of Cryptographic Certification

As quantum computing moves closer to reality, the global cryptographic community faces a pivotal moment. The 14th International Cryptographic Module Conference (ICMC) brings together leaders from government, industry, and academia to explore the most pressing challenges and solutions in cryptographic assurance.

ICMC26 will focus on the global transition to post-quantum cryptography (PQC), the rollout of new NIST cryptographic standards, and the evolving landscape of certification programs like FIPS 140-3, Common Criteria, and emerging international frameworks. Attendees will engage in in-depth discussions on algorithm selection, implementation strategies, crypto-agility, and multi-jurisdictional compliance.

With expert-led sessions, case studies, and policy briefings, ICMC provides the critical forum for professionals developing, certifying, and deploying cryptographic modules in a rapidly changing threat environment. Whether you’re advancing secure communications, protecting sensitive data, or shaping policy, ICMC equips you with the insight and tools needed to meet the cryptographic demands of the quantum era.

Who Should Attend

ICMC is designed for anyone involved with data security based in commercial encryption, especially those who develop, manufacture, test, specify or use certified commercial off the shelf cryptographic modules, with a special focus on standards like FIPS 140-3, ISO/IEC 19790, PCI, and common criteria. Participants include cryptographic module developers, testing labs, government standards organizations, private schemes, embedded systems OEMs, academics, and the side channel research community.

The International Cryptographic Module Series Includes:

Presented April 20, this optional special-focus event will help you prepare now for the threat posed by future quantum computers. Key topics include: Understanding the threat and projected timelines; assessing current encryption vulnerabilities; transitioning to standardized quantum-resistant cryptography; creating effective policies and procedures; ensuring system resilience and backups; engaging with vendors and third-party suppliers; educating team members and stakeholders; complying with regulatory requirements. This special-focus event will include important, actionable information for anyone concerned with cybersecurity in a data-dependent enterprise. Click here for the complete agenda.

Presented April 20. As cyber regulations tighten and encryption moves to the core of compliance, organizations must ensure their cryptographic infrastructure is both secure and interoperable. Crypto Infrastructure Day brings together experts from government, industry, and standards bodies to examine the technologies that underpin trusted systems: Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) for digital trust, PKCS #11 for secure cryptographic operations, and KMIP for enterprise key lifecycle management. Attendees will gain practical insight into how these standards work together to protect sensitive data, enable regulatory compliance, and support modern architectures across cloud and hybrid environments. From certificate authorities to key management servers to hardware security modules, this one-day event delivers a comprehensive view of how to build, manage, and modernize cryptographic infrastructure at scale.
